NOFA Standards for Organic Land Care

NOFA Standards for Organic Land Care: Practices for Design and Maintenance of Ecological Landscapes, 4th Edition, April 2009

The Standards go far beyond how to grow an organic lawn. They present a philosophy of ecological stewardship in designing and maintaining landscapes. The Standards are the result of more than ten years' work by landscape professionals, scientists and citizen activists. The NOFA Organic Land Care Committee was formed in 1999 to extend the vision and principles of organic agriculture to the care of the landscapes where most people live, work, and carry out their daily lives. 87 pages.
